Uh, right.  YMB isn't too bad, but the others were meant to be annoying, and 
they always are.  Recorded, that is.  Actually, they're quite good live.  :)

It's interesting that The Who did smoother material back then, but mostly 
they passed it up on their albums for the punk sound.  Even the material on 
MY GENERATION that has the 60's pop sound has a sharper edge than most.  
Whoever made this decision chose well, as it's given the songs longevity 
that most sixties music doesn't have.  Notice how well it all plays today.
